The Bible
truly is a book of courtship, and our God is a courting God. Some people may
disagree with the statement that God is a courting God. But unless we disregard
the Bible, we must admit that this is the truth. The Bible clearly reveals that God is courting man.
In the Old Testament the tabernacle was God’s
dwelling, and at the same time it was also the priests’ dwelling in which they
served. Both God and His serving priests
dwelt in the same tabernacle. To God the New Jerusalem is His dwelling, and to
us God is our dwelling. Therefore, the tabernacle is God’s dwelling place,
and this God who dwells in the tabernacle is the temple, which is the dwelling
place of His serving ones. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 4392)
